Angela Rayner made a joke about being ginger at Labour’s local elections launch on Thursday (28 March).

The Labour deputy leader was introducing Sir Keir Starmer, as she made comparisons between her and the party’s leader.

“I guess the one difference is I had to endure it as a ginger, so I have got one up there.”
